"It hurts, doesn't it," George muttered quietly, his voice drifting slowly through the air as he sat beside Dream, eyes cast up towards the starry night sky. Dream turned his head just enough to take in the side of George's face, eyes searching questioningly as he said, "what hurts?" He saw the corner of George's mouth tick slightly, heard him exhale a quick breath before his head turned, eyes dropping to meet Dream's as he quietly answered, "it hurts being in love with someone who doesn't love you back." OR Dream is hopelessly in love with his best friend, George; except George doesn't feel the same. Cover art by lustlilywander on Twitter 💞

(The complete, rewritten version) Dream and George are just two boys in high school. Each suffering with their own trauma, living everyday as a nightmare. Until one day, their paths cross and their lives are never the same again. And it all starts on a singular bridge. The very same bridge where it ends. (07.15.21-08.06.21)

Young Dream, believing he has feelings for someone else, comes to a realization that the one he's actually falling for is George. The two are young and dumb in highschool, forgetting the many mistakes they can make as seniors. - each necessary trigger warning is at the top of each chapter so if anything triggers you, you do not need to read the chapter :)

"I promise you. I promise I'll come back." He promises, George thinks wistfully. He promises such a thing- to offer George with his word on something, to uphold it. It's as if he's saying that he'll give the world to him, just for him. But somewhere is the lingering thought in George's mind is that he won't come back. That the cruel war that had riddled their land will take him too, and he will be left wonted and worry worn. George shivers at the thought. "You promise?" That you'll come home to me? And as if he heard those unspoken words. Dream beams at him. "I promise. You won't even notice that I was gone, my love." George releases a wet and broken laugh at the cheesy pet name. Dream does too before pulling him back into his embrace. They stay there for a bit. The war can wait. "I promise I'll be waiting." (or, the war au with letters and oscar wilde quotes.)
